It was written by Scott Frost, who I presume is Mark Frost's son - a similar arrangement to Jenny Lynch (David's daughter) writing the Diary. It seems fairly "official" to me. Seriously though, you should read it. It is very revealing (about Coop's past and showing how his character developed), very interesting, and very, VERY funny in a lot of places. I have never read another book that was so brooding/ depressing on one page and hilarious the next. And, as I also said, it is great background reading in improving one's understanding of the show.
